Technical Data

Description

FB1K5100020X | 1.5 kW, 4 quadrants, regenerative DC source/sink, ±100 A, ±20 V

The FAST-Bi-1K5 series represents high-precision, bipolar 4-quadrant power supplies with bidirectional and regenerative functionality. It enables both precise power injection and controlled energy absorption, including feeding back into the grid – ideal for dynamic test and verification environments.

General features of the series

  • 4-quadrant operation (bipolar, bidirectional, regenerative)
  • Control modes: Constant Current (CC), Constant Voltage (CV), Constant Power (CP), Constant Resistance (CR)
  • Digital, configurable control with PID auto-tuning
  • Very high accuracy: < 0.01% Output Accuracy Temperature Stability: <0.0002%/K Long-term Stability (8 h): <0.001% Rapid Dynamics: Rise Time < 70 µs, 5 kHz closed-loop bandwidth
  • Integrated 100 kHz waveform generator and 4-channel oscilloscope via web GUI
  • Communication: 10/100/1000 Mbit Ethernet (TCP-IP/UDP) + 2× SFP+
  • 19”-2U stand-alone device with local display
  • Parallel connection up to 4 devices (max. 6 kW)
  • Extensive protection and interlock functions

Typical applications

  • Battery testing (charge/discharge cycles with Energy recuperation)
  • Superconducting magnets and magnetic power supplies
  • PV cell and module testing
  • Configurable electronic load (active load)
  • Research and industrial applications with high dynamic requirements

Variant FB1K5100020X – FAST-Bi-1K5 100-20

The FB1K5100020X offers a particularly well-balanced current-to-voltage ratio, delivering ±100 A at ±20 V at a rated power of 1,500 W. It is ideally suited for applications requiring both high currents and moderate voltages.

Comparison with other variants of the FAST-Bi-1K5 Series

  • FB1K5150010X (150-10): Higher current (±150 A), but lower voltage (±10 V)
  • FB1K5100020X (100-20): Optimal balance between current and voltage
  • FB1K5050040X (50-40): Lower current, but higher voltage
  • FB1K5030050X (30-50): Voltage-oriented variant with reduced current
  • FB1K5020100X (20-100): Highest voltage (±100 V) and 2,000 W Performance

Product Features:

  • Output Current: ±100 A
  • Output Voltage: ±20 V
  • Rated Power: 1,500 W
  • Equivalent Switching Frequency: 400 kHz
  • Efficiency: > 86% (AC/DC and DC/AC)
  • 24-bit Setting & Readback for Current and Voltage
  • Input: 180–264 VAC / 47–63 Hz
  • Dimensions: 19” x 2U x 587 mm
  • Weight: 15 kg
